What does it do?

Features include global settings, advertisements allowing template conditionals, ad sharing and ad revenue sharing, timed advertisements, preset popular ad locations and functions such as sponsors, additional custom ad locations, random and static advertisements and its all very easy to use. You can use it for ordinary ads like adsense, banner rotations, or any content at all as well as using it to manage ads outside your forum too.

You can read in more detail about these and other features in the manual, which also contains some helpful notes and instructions, as well as the installation and upgrade instructions



If you are using autoinsertion and were using vB Ad Management before version 4.00, you will need to remove your old template edits or advertisements will appear multiple times. Just reverse the old instructions below.

Quote:
* Find <!-- post $post[postid] popup menu --> and paste $postbit_advertisement above it in your postbit & postbit_legacy templates.
* Paste $forumbit_advertisement at the bottom of your forumhome_forumbit_level1_post and forumhome_forumbit_level2_post templates.
* Paste $threadbit_advertisement at the bottom of your threadbit template.
* Paste $footer_advertisement at the top of your footer template.
* Find $spacer_close in your footer template and below it paste $rightcolumn_advertisement.
* Find &nbsp; in your header template and replace it with $header_advertisement.
* Find $spacer_open in your header template and below it paste $leftcolumn_advertisement.

This is the error I get when trying to install in 3.5

Database error in vBulletin 3.5.3:

Invalid SQL:

### INSERT QUERY GENERATED BY fetch_query_sql() ###
INSERT INTO plugin
(`active`, `executionorder`, `title`, `hookname`, `phpcode`, `product`)
VALUES
('1', '5', 'Postbit/Postbit_Legacy advertisement integrate', 'cache_templates', '\r\nif (in_array(THIS_SCRIPT, array(\'showthread\', \'showpost\', \'announcement\', \'private\')) && $vbulletin->options[\'adintegrate_onoff\'])\r\n{\r\n if ($vbulletin->options[\'legacypostbit\'])\r\n { \r\n $globaltemplates[] = \'postbit_legacy_advertisement\';\r\n }\r\n else\r\n {\r\n $globaltemplates[] = \'postbit_advertisement\';\r\n }\r\n}\r\n', 'adintegrate_rt');

MySQL Error : Unknown column 'executionorder' in 'field list'
Error Number : 1054

But after when I goto the product list, it show as installed.
After which, I goto vboptions but its not there inder threasd display... Any ideas?

It would seem that it's not compatible with 3.5.

I will release a 3.5 version of the next release, which is almost done. If you want to try to change it now, just replace all the examples in the code of executionorder="5" to "active=1" might do it. Otherwise, you'll have to wait I'm afraid.

I can't seem to get the banner to appear, the postbit for it shows perfectly, it's just blank. Any suggestions?

I'm an idiot, it was me using FF 2.0, works great in IE. Thanks! I also am looking forward to the rotator!

*install*

Finally got some time, so clicked Install! Thanks, works brillant and much appreciated.

A nice idea to think over (i've seen this before) is to have the avatar represented with a Google Referral button, e.g. Get Firefox with Google Toolbar. This avatar should ofcourse have Google's JavaScript, so when a user clicks and installs the product you earn some. I have read this is perfectly fine within the Google TOS.

To add to my own musings: it's only allowed to have one referral product per page, so that's kind of limiting.

You can edit it in the "postbit_advertisement" template now, though you will be able to change it to what you want via the Ad Management CP in the next version.

Well. I would have liked to have a Google Referral button as avatar, but since you can only have one referral product per webpage, you're not allowed to display this avatar (referral) after_1st_post and after_last_post (or more than one time per page)
